The city has cleared most of the right of. way and most of the pipe is already strewn along the right of way, ready for welding. weld-ing. We understand that one or two culverts will have to be installed in-stalled where the new pipe line crosses washes, but Parowan city is to do this part of the work. The Fuller company now has a large cat, and a trench digger on the job and has started the work we understand. |
